Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #58 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Trinity Hymnal Lyrics: 1 The Lord is King! Lift up thy voice,
O earth; and all ye heave'ns, rejoice:
From world to world the joy shall ring,
"The Lord omnipotent is King!"
2 The Lord is King! Who then shall dare
Resist his will, distrust his care,
Or murmur at his wise decrees,
Or doubt his royal promises?
3 The Lord is King! Child of the dust,
The Judge of all the earth is just;
Holy and true are all his ways:
Let ev'ry creature speak his praise.
4 Alike pervaded by his eye,
All parts of his dominion lie;
This world of ours, and worlds unseen,
And thin the boundary between.
5 One Lord, one empire, all secures;
He reigns, and life and death are yours:
Through earth and heav'n one song shall ring,
"The Lord omnipotent is King!"
Amen. Topics: God Divine Perfections of; God Glory of; God Justice of; God Omnipotence of; God Omniscience of; God Praise of; God Sovereignty of ; Processionals Scripture: Revelation 19:6 Languages: English Tune Title: CHURCH TRIUMPHANT
